Editor:

The Beeville Vineyard wishes to thank all the people in the community who so generously supported the recent Day of Giving, sponsored by the Coastal Bend Community Foundation. The record amount donated will make it possible for us to assist many people in need in our community – as soon as we receive the first portion of those funds on Dec. 12. (Because of our extremely limited funds until that date, we are presently putting a lot of requests for assistance on hold.)

We’d also like to remind Bee County families who need toys for their children to register for Toys for Tots this week, Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to noon and 1-3 p.m. Funds from the Day of Giving help the Christmas Angels program provide food for those families.

We were simply overwhelmed by the wonderful support of so many kind people in this community!

Many thanks.

Lupe Sánchez
